HID H3 Problem, Flickering - Important if you plan to get HIDs. Options

[trdproven]

Hi - Trying to figure out why my HID's flicker and then shut off. First of all, since H3 HIDs have many wires as compared to a factory halogen with 1 wire I can close the OEM cover but with HIDs I cannot close the cover because of the more wires running to the ballasts. How did you guys run yours? Getting into my real issue, my first thoughts on the problem is that I might not have a good ground. I can also try switching ballasts around, set up dedicated grounds for each side, turning on the car for more power, or wire both negative and power from the HID bulb bypassing the OEM harness on the backside of the fog. Any ideas or experiences anyone might have, I already wasted my money on H3 LED's, they are white but not bright. I really need a true and sureshot way of installing H3 HIDs. Thanks in advance.
